I live in the southern part of the state. How I wish Mayo in Scottsdale had an NTM clinic. They do not. I'm sure they have reputable physicians but none with the NTM specialty (that I know of...if anyone does, please let me know). They do have NTM clinics in Jacksonville and Rochester. As a result, I travel to National Jewish in Denver twice a year. I've been doing that since diagnosed in 2010.

While Scottsdale Mayo does not have a clinic, Dr. Gilbert Ortega joined the pulmonology staff in 2021. I had my first appointment with him yesterday. He has expertise in diagnosis and management for bronchiectasis.

Scottsdale Mayo also has an ID doctor now who treats bronchiectasis and MAC , Dr. Jamilah Shubeilat.

@busybeans Thanks for the info on Scottsdale. Does Nat Jewish coordinate with your local doctor in case you would have a situation where you needed urgent care?
